Grantor

A grantor is an individual or entity that creates and provides a grant or trust. In legal terms, the grantor is the person who transfers property or assets into a trust, establishing the rules for how those assets will be managed and distributed. In the context of grants, a grantor may be a government agency, foundation, or organization that offers funding for specific projects or purposes. Essentially, the grantor is responsible for initiating and setting the terms for the support they are providing, whether through a trust or financial grant.
